Winter 2019 - Professor Decker is so fucking boring; by the end of the second quarter I hated his lectures with passion. The other professors were somewhat better, specially Fink, but overall the class gets really tiresome by the Winter quarter. However, I would advise sticking with it until the end, as the Spring seminar was quite fun and enjoyable (I took it with Tom, but it is different for every TA and year, so YMMV). Personally, I think it's worth the extra credit.

Winter 2019 - I'm not going to try to convince anyone to take this class because if you're looking at BruinWalk for 60B then I'm guessing you've already taken 60A and you know that it's an interesting class and that Fink is a literal GOD. I will say that I'm selling the course reader for this quarter. I paid $60 for it and I'm willing to sell it for $40. It's only got a few notes throughout but its in great condition. If for some reason you didn't see my post for 60A, I also have pdf's of all the books you need for the year so if you realize that you need the writer's handbook or any of the others, I'll share it with you for free. If you're interested in the course reader or any of the books I have to offer, just shoot me an email at ************* and I'll be happy to help you out.
